The change to the ATAGI recommended definition of COVID-19 vaccine status, of ‘fully vaccinated’, to include the booster shot, will not apply to the entry requirement for international travellers arriving in Australia.

9th February 2022:
The Victorian Premier believes three COVID-19 vaccines should be made mandatory for arrivals from overseas.

The Premier believes that ATAGI will recommend to National Cabinet – which is expected to meet on 10th February 2022 – that the definition of a fully vaccinated person be changed from two doses to three doses.

From Home Affairs:
You are considered to be fully vaccinated for travel to and from Australia if you have completed a course of a vaccine approved or recognised by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA). This includes mixed doses.

Current approved or recognised vaccines and dosages accepted for travel are:

Two doses at least 14 days apart of:

• AstraZeneca Vaxzevria
• AstraZeneca Covishield
• Pfizer/Biontech ComirnatyModerna
• Spikevax or Takeda
• Sinovac Coronavac
• Bharat Biotech Covaxin
• Sinopharm BBIBP-CorV (for people under 60 years of age on arrival in Australia)
• Gamaleya Research Institute Sputnik V
• Novavax/Biocelect Nuvaxovid.

Or one dose of:

• Johnson & Johnson/ Janssen-Cilag COVID Vaccine.

The TGA is evaluating other COVID-19 vaccines that may be recognised for inbound travel to Australia in future.

At least 7 days must have passed since the final dose of vaccine in a course of immunisation for you to be considered fully vaccinated.
